In conjunction with her solo retrospective at Hudson Hall, join Cuban-American artist Sita Gómez in conversation with curator Nancy Cobean. Together, they explore Gómez’s extraordinary life and career, from her childhood in wartime Paris to her decades as a painter in New York and Cuba.
Following the talk, Gómez will sign copies of her memoir Sita Gómez: A Historical Memoir (2025).
Born in Paris in 1932 and now based in Hudson, New York, Gómez paints with vivid color and unflinching passion. Shaped by her multicultural upbringing and childhood experiences fleeing Nazi-occupied Paris and later Castro’s revolution, her work explores, challenges, and celebrates universal themes of gender, sexuality, history, and religion.
